I built the first version of my web client. It can now pull HTML data from HTTP sites, using a TCP socket.
If you don’t know what I’m working on, I’m building a pure C++ browser engine, to load and render websites like google without the use of AI and libraries.
Note that it does not work for https, as to build a handshake between the 2 is super difficult, even for a good programmer.
The next step will be to pull an entire webpage off and save it in RAM.
Thanks for reading, and I hope you follow my journey!

Once it’s in RAM do you just give the HTML, CSS, and JS to the native web renderer?
@Falling10Fruit no, the plan is to build my own, im debating using something like openGL or just my own render.
dude that’s crazy, good luck
